Software Asset Tracking
We're looking for a way to store and manage software assets. For example, if we have 20 licenses of Adobe Acrobat, we would like to create the asset in Atera, know how many licenses we have, it's renewal date, and who the asset has been assigned to. This would be great for Microsoft 365, Atlassian, and other software licenses we need to track/manage.
It would also be great if we can upload contracts/documents with the asset.

You can create a custom asset type to capture the licenses assigned to users, and then generate reports accordingly. Or are you referring to Atera's ability to ingest data from SaaS providers to track that information?
The attachment piece would be incredible; the workaround we have is to create a custom field to drop a Drive link.
I am working on keeping track of my IT Contracts/licenses in this fashion.

This would be fantastic.

This would be a fantastic feature to add, even starting with a simple calendar that tracks license renewal dates and prompts a specific role to begin arranging renewal.
As said elsewhere, bringing everything under the one pane in this way would simplify many processes and further entangle Atera into businesses.

It would be nice if Atera coulda track Third-Party licenses. For example, the device management screen would show if a copy of SolidWorks, Nitro Pro or Adobe Pro was installed and list the corresponding licenses. I know a few other RMM solutions have functionality like this. Would make tracking licensed software much easier.
